He graduated from Seoul National University in 1968.^[1] His later work drew on acupuncture, natural healing, philosophy, metaphysics, and systems of correspondence between the body and its parts.

Development Of Sujok Therapy

Sujok Therapy is based on correspondence between the human body and areas of the hands and feet.^[7] Professor Park's retrospective chronology includes an intuition in 1953 that connected the thumb with the head, a more developed hand-body correspondence idea by 1974, conception of the therapeutic system in 1984-1985, and formal public presentation in 1987.^[3]

The first public materials included the Su Jok 14 Byol Meridian Chart in October 1987 and the Su Jok Constitution Chart in December 1987. Early works included Su Jok (Hand & Foot) Acupuncture, M Particle Theory, and later expanded manuals.^[3]

The therapy's name combines the Korean words Su for hand and Jok for foot.^[6]

Professor Park founded or led several Sujok-related organizations, including the Korean Institute for Sujok Acupuncture, International Sujok Therapy Association, Sujok Academy of Moscow, ONNURI Public Fund, Cyprus Sujok Center, and Onnuri College in Almaty, Kazakhstan.

Triorigin Theory uses the terms Neuto, Hetero, Homo, and Neutro to describe a fundamental order behind existence and function.^[8] Triorigin World became a major synthesis of Professor Park's worldview, bringing together Triorigin, energy theory, correspondence systems, and Smile Meditation.^[3]
